If a cat doesn't like you, then what's wrong with you?
Hi, I'm in Perth and hoping to find a doula for my upcoming birth in July. I really want to try for my active, drug free, waterbirth at the Birth Centre. However, I am a wuss so realistically don't know if I'll be able to do it. My DH wasn't that great during my last birth and because I ended up being induced, I wasn't in the right mindset to utilize the hypnobirthing strategies I learnt. This time around DH will be there again (possibly) with DS so I think I need some support. Please pm if you know of anyone.
